On 10/24/99, the 555 Cedar St. Public Health Building was
re-named Public Health Center, Don Juenemann Building. Commissioners
Rettman and Haigh attended the ceremony.

Don was a Housing Inspector who had worked for the St.
Paul Department of Health for many years. He was violently killed on
December 24, 1997, while working as a housing code enforcement officer doing
an inspection of a property.

At the dedication, Violence-Free Families and
Communities in Ramsey County participated to emphasize the need to
prevent and end such senseless acts of violence in the community. Large
signs with the "!Symbol" and
wording "We are a peaceful community. Please show kindness and
respect in your words and actions toward our children and each other."
These signs were placed at the entrances of 555 Cedar and will eventually be
placed at all Ramsey County facilities. Violent acts are a major health
threat to children and families.
